Transience

The look of surprise on your face, the enlarged eyes and open jaw

It made me wonder if I had said too much, if I had remembered too much 

But it is so easy you see, to notice every little detail about you, it comes to me naturally

Your words imprinted in my mind, your voice echoing in my ears

Maybe it is because you speak so less, I yearn to hear that soothing voice, too soft against this noisy world

But then again, the world seems to grow silent when you have something to say

I know nothing about you and it makes me ache

I know that this bond of ours was destined to break 

But why does my heart still shiver when I remember the time my hand brushed against yours and you didn't take it back

The touch still lingers on my palm, the feeling still lingers in my soul 

You are mysterious like an abyss, too difficult to comprehend yet too important to overlook

Your soul so deep, I couldn't reach it, no one could

But I keep on coming back, trying to peep into your world, trying to get inside your mind

Questions after questions after questions, all unasked, all forgotten 

Me and you and the warmth I feel when your skin touches mine, everything else unimportant 

Not a word exchanged, not a word needed.
